DVD Talk review of 'Let the Right One In' (Blu-ray)
I read DVD Savant's DVD review of Let the Right One In at http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/read.php?ID=36567 and...
Just got this from Netflix tonight, and I loved it. It's not really a scary film at all. Just atmospheric, and creepy. Yet very touching. It reminded me of "The Devil's Backbone" a lot. A very classy and extremely well done thriller. 9/10 rating from me. And the BD PQ was 10/10.

i was a little disappointed by 'Backbone' so hope it won't be too much like that as i have it rented and plan on watching and looking forward to enjoying this weekend. along with zombie, vampire movies are my favorite.

Am I the only one who didn't think the PQ was that stellar on the BD? It seemed a little questionable to me at certain times.

I just watched it. I thought it was pretty good. Nice take on the vampire genre. Like the ending on the train a lot.
Did it default to English dub for everyone else on Blu? I switched to Swedish with English subs as soon as the dialogue started. When the kid was saying the first line and since it's from a famous American film I thought that part was supposed to be in English. It wasn't until we got to the school and the poor dubbing did I figure it out and make the switch.

didn't think it was a horror movie and i have knowledge of history. the story was slow and plodding and i just didn't like the movie.

I don't know, I kind of felt like the Blu-transfer while never pops, kind of lends to the '70s feel of the movie itself. It's still an upgrade over the SD, the outdoor scenes, look gorgeous. For under $20, I love the movie so much, it's a must-own Blu-Ray.
